Transient Orcas, TO20 & TO21! May 12th, 2013

Here are some wonderful images by Ron Bates, MMRG, from today's encounter with Transient Orcas, TO20 & TO21. These two Transient Orcas have been sighted in the area several times this season as they patrol the area in search of their next meal, which is primarily Harbor Seals.

Please click on the images to enlarge. Images may be downloaded free of charge for personal use only and may not be republished unless credit is given to Five Star Whale Watching.

A disk can be purchased with various high quality images featuring Orcas and other Marine Wildlife. Contact our Photographer, Andrew Lees, at alees1@hotmail.com for further details or visit his website at http://andrewlees.webs.com/ to discover more of his work. Part of the proceeds from this disk will go to the Center for Whale Research to help fund continued research of the Southern Resident Orcas.
